"This is a nice trail, especially considering you can get up it and down faster than a couple of the smaller local mountains that lack the views. Even so, it's steep up there. I fell several times on the way down, not enough to hurt, but enough to make me wish for trekking poles. The views from the top are wonderful. You can see out across the high plains as far as the Earth curves, and out towards the Rockies the other direction. Pike's Peak was beautiful off in the distance in the evening light. A great trip." — danielmartin • Sep 5, 2021
"I enjoyed a nice little hike to the summit with my friend, L. The views are beautiful and the trail pretty well marked although there are a couple of places where it is not real clear. We ended up "blazing" our own trail to the summit. :) Roundtrip hike to the summit is right around 4 miles, but we explored a couple of other side trails as well and added another half mile or so. The first mile or so is pretty steep, but basically an easy climb. " — Hikermom29 • May 6, 2016
"I had today off from work. Deb and I decided to hike up Mount Herman from the Red Rocks Rd trailhead. Weather was unsettled so I we didn't hang out long at the summit. We descended to the saddle and made a quick dash to also pick up Raspberry Mountain. As we were coming down from Raspberry Mountain we began to hear distant thunder. We picked up the pace coming down and got to the car just before the rain and hail began. " — telemarkdude • May 23, 2014
"Much of the trail followed a wash, which meant it was steep and hard to follow at times. Little rock cairns that other hikers put up were helpful, but you can't always count on them being there." — TakinIt2Type2 • Oct 21, 2012
